Printing bills

Practice Manager only

There are a number of methods you can use to print a bill. Draft and submitted bills are printed from the Preview window (accessed by clicking Preview) from the following pages during bill preparation:

Billing Main page
Draft Bills page.

Generally bills are printed once they are posted, using the Bills Ready to Print window. This window lists all posted bills and is automatically displayed when a bill is posted. It can also be accessed by selecting Billing > Ready to Print on the toolbar.

From the Bills Ready To Print page, you can either print or preview the bill using Microsoft Word. Once printed, the bills are generally removed from this list. To reprint a previously printed bill use the Bills tab on the client page, where the client’s previous bills are listed in the Full Billing History list.
